Hi fasaso,

you use a standard offset for a button / switch that controls the autopilot (ALT HLD).

In the upper part of the basic settings, the offset is selected and the values for this offset are set.

Under other options, you enter the value sent to FSUIPC when you press the button / switch. In this case, 1 is transmitted.

The field can not be empty because it would not make sense to transfer nothing. A value must be transmitted, otherwise FSUIPC does not know what to do. Logically, right?
Grüße,
